Lyrics

Yea, so many friends around me

But still feeling alone, no one understands me

Living life on my own

Don't fit in with most crowd, I'm too shy

I like the presences of my own company, day and night

Wrong or right I do my own thing don't follow the rest

Hold all the pain deep inside, very deep in my chest

Plus my flesh don't control me, my soul is redeemed

But even my christian friends don't understand who I've been

Since a young age, my pant sag half to the side

The paths I walk in my steps, walk with my head held high

Confident in my approach, yet I'm feelin' alone

Not many understand God had had me since I was young

I'm an outcast I'm different, I'm glad to be

Not a clone, follow dreams that lead my destiny

And whether or not you accept me

I'm doing what God has call me to, answer me this

Are you living for acceptance, are you living a lie?

Are you living to get noticed, see your name in the light

Are you for self glory or are you living for cash

Or you living for reason that's so selfish not planned

Are you building up a legacy, speaking life to the Earth

Are you tryna bring up a positive attitude to beat the curse

But take you do what you do and its time to know this truth

It's time to stop living false but the question is, are you?

So I put a trust in God and I follow His guide

On a path on a journey He is paying for my life

Keep doing what I do 'cause this things had a purpose

I have that spirit drive 'cause you too deserve it

To heed the word of God, hear the gospel being preached

In a way that can relate, 'cause God can use anything

Are you living for your potential or destiny for you?

Or you living just to live, living a life unfulfilled

Just going day by day, not focusing on a way

To make a change for the people you see along the way

For the neighborhood you cared for, those who's close to you

It's time to make a difference, how prepared are you?

'Cause I could do what it takes, God use me I'm yours

If only us put in our cells, I'd been gettin' support

Real talk I'm not hidin' let's ignite the flame

Let's unite together and make a change

'Cause I'm overlooked by the world and overlooked by the christians

I'm different on both sides, my culture just doesn't fit in

It's crazy that for me to sell I have to blaspheme and curse

I pray for the day that hip-hop get's support from the church

Are you living for acceptance, are you living a lie?

Are you living to get noticed, see your name in the light

Are you for self glory or are you living for cash

Or you living for reason that's so selfish not planned

Are you building up a legacy, speaking life to the Earth

Are you tryna bring up a positive attitude to beat the curse

But take you do what you do and its time to know this truth

It's time to stop living false but the question is, are you?

Yeah, and I'm not just talking about the christians

I'm talking about anyone and everyone

Not matter what you believe, your culture or religion

It ain't about that, we need to make a change

Change for the better, change for the good

If we love our communities and our neighborhood

It should not matter what our background is

We should all unite in a positive way and create a difference

Time to wise up and stop being lazy, myself included

If we really want to change the way the world has become

Then step up and do it, don't wait for someone else, you be a leader

Let's start food banks and feed the needy, provide shelter and camp clothes

Come on people, stop all the drugs talk and stupid hoes talk in your music

Let's uplift the children and used that listen to it, promote positivity

Let's not be hateful or violent towards our politician or world leaders

Even if they ain't own enough to our expectations or their agreements

What hate and violence gonna do to the outcome, nothing

Stop once to think, use our brain, don't fight with violence

Fight with our words and determination

If we all come together and fight for a change, the who can stop us

Real talk, let's go people, get out of our comfort zone

Go to the world and to the third world eulogy and see real life for some people

Notice how good most of use have it

There is enough food and enough money in the world

So that no one got to live in poverty and hunger

Let's stop being selfish and change the world, come on

Are you living for acceptance, are you living a lie?

Are you living to get noticed, see your name in the light

Are you for self glory or are you living for cash

Or you living for reason that's so selfish not planned

Are you building up a legacy, speaking life to the Earth

Are you tryna bring up a positive attitude to beat the curse

But take you do what you do and its time to know this truth

It's time to stop living false but the question is, are you?
